Strategies for teaching english
This document outlines how listening to English music can help students learn and improve their English skills. It recommends using songs to practice listening, reading lyrics, writing, and singing to develop vocabulary, expressions, and pronunciation. Examples of song lyrics are provided to illustrate this, along with explanations of words and phrases. The document suggests that singing songs can particularly aid pronunciation.
Teaching receptive skills
The document discusses the importance of both listening and reading skills. It provides tips for developing these skills such as preparation, responding to content rather than just language, and exploiting texts to their full potential. Listening involves processes like pre-listening, during listening, and post listening. Similarly, reading involves before, during, and after reading stages. Both skills are important for understanding others, language acquisition, and making life more full and interesting.
Sub-skills in reading comprehension tests
The document summarizes a study that examined teachers' perceptions of reading subskills and the relationship between subskills and test items. 5 experienced English teachers participated in rating the difficulty of reading subskills and identifying the subskills required to answer test items. There was strong agreement among teachers on the hierarchy of subskill difficulty and the subskills tested by each item. A correlation was found between teachers' ratings of subskill difficulty and results from Rasch analysis, providing empirical validation of teachers' judgments. The study provides support for using teacher judgments in test development and examining reading test content in relation to subskills.
English teaching strategies
This document provides an overview of best practices for teaching English learners. It discusses 5 targets of a workshop on English language development, including foundational concepts, universal access through differentiated instruction, research findings, vocabulary strategies, and scaffolding content. Key terms are defined, such as EL, ELD, BICS, CALP. Research findings emphasize the benefits of bilingual education, strong home language skills, and interactive instruction. Effective strategies for teaching vocabulary and scaffolding content include using visuals, KWL charts, think-pair-share, and summarization. Overall, the document stresses the importance of differentiated instruction and scaffolding to provide English learners with universal access to content.
7 Reading and Listening Lesson Musts (and why they're maybes)
This document discusses reading and listening lessons. It outlines 5 "musts" for these types of lessons: 1) Always do a gist activity, 2) Get comprehension questions right on the first try by helping students understand why answers are wrong, 3) Pre-teach essential vocabulary, 4) Only play audio recordings twice, and 5) Move on to other activities after reading instead of re-reading the text. The document also discusses subskills that can be focused on like prediction, note-taking and summarizing. It emphasizes using both top-down and bottom-up processing approaches in lessons.
Receptive skills in english language teaching
This document discusses receptive skills in English language teaching, focusing on reading and listening. It addresses key issues in teaching reading such as top-down and bottom-up reading strategies, the influence of cultural schemas, and challenges caused by insufficient linguistic ability or unfamiliar cultural contexts in texts. The document also discusses problems teaching reading and proposes solutions such as pre-reading tasks, supplementary materials, and mixed-ability group work to support weaker readers.
Stages to a receptive skills lesson
This document outlines the stages of a receptive skills lesson to improve students' reading abilities. It involves 4 main stages: [1] Lead-in to engage students and make predictions; [2] First reading for the gist or specific information; [3] Feedback on tasks; [4] Second reading for deeper understanding. Each stage aims to make students more confident and independent readers through tasks focused on global comprehension before details. Follow-up often involves productive speaking or writing skills related to the reading topic. The overall goal is to fully exploit the text and have students learn in a personally meaningful way.
Class management reading
This document discusses different methods for grouping students in the classroom and managing student behavior. It covers grouping students as a whole class, individually, in pairs, and in groups. It discusses the advantages and disadvantages of each approach and factors to consider when creating groups, such as friendship, ability, participation level, and chance. The document also covers reasons why problem behavior occurs and ways for teachers to prevent it, such as establishing clear expectations and maintaining student engagement through appropriate activities.

Classroom management May 2019
Classroom management involves establishing strategies to ensure a productive learning environment, including how teachers structure classroom interactions, communication, physical space, and student conduct. Effective classroom management strategies include seating arrangements, instructing in students' native language, asking questions, correcting mistakes, addressing problem behaviors, and using different grouping approaches like individual work, whole class teaching, pairs, and groups. The goals of classroom management are to promote learning and positively guide student behavior, engagement, and social and academic development.
Best teaching apps
The document discusses trends in educational apps and technology. It notes that students are increasingly writing and learning in digital contexts, facilitated by ubiquitous social and new media. These technologies promote collaborative, participatory learning through project-based and wiki-based activities, digital storytelling, and more opportunities for practice and feedback. The document outlines future trends like adaptive learning, augmented and virtual reality experiences, integration of the internet of things into education, and artificial intelligence potentially changing how and where students learn.
Having fun with suprasegmentals and flipgrid
The document discusses using the video discussion platform Flipgrid to have students practice English pronunciation skills like stress, intonation, rhythm, and linking sounds. It proposes several exercises and activities using minimal pairs, tongue twisters, dictation, and songs lyrics. Students would record themselves reading lyrics and receive feedback to improve their pronunciation of suprasegmentals and incorporate these aspects into a final lip sync video recording. The conclusion states that this approach helped students develop understanding of English suprasegmentals, built their confidence, and positively impacted their fluency.
Using plickers beyond the test
Plickers is a real-time assessment tool that allows teachers to poll students without requiring student devices. It collects assessment data anonymously to check for understanding, review before assessments, and poll students to gather information. Plickers increases participation, provides instant feedback, facilitates differentiated learning, and saves time by allowing teachers to do quick formative assessments through multiple choice questions using personalized cards for each student.

Communicative grammar elements
This document summarizes the key elements of communicative grammar teaching. It outlines the pre, while, and post stages of a communicative grammar lesson. The pre stage generates interest and sets context. The while stage focuses on expressions over vocabulary, engages previous knowledge, guides practice, and generates communication needs. Grammar is presented and errors are corrected. The post stage integrates other skills, recycles grammar, and allows free production. It emphasizes teaching grammar in context and through an integrated skills approach to develop practical communicative competence.
Web based activities and critical thinking
This document discusses using authentic websites in English language teaching and provides examples of lesson plans that utilize non-educational websites. It recommends authentic websites as they can be chosen to fit students' interests, provide opportunities for total comprehension, and foster independent learning. Two sample lesson plans are included, one involving students discussing weird foods from different countries using online sources and another having students research an animal and its habitat from a wildlife website to create an informational brochure. Teachers are tasked with finding their own non-educational website to use, preparing a 5-minute lesson plan description, and sending the full lesson plan to be graded based on criteria like addressing the four parts of the ABCD model and incorporating critical thinking.
Trip planner
This document is a 2-day trip planner template for a trip between two cities. The template includes sections for each day to plan two attractions to visit, how to get to each attraction, hours of operation, estimated time required, ticket prices, and tips from other travelers. It also includes sections to plan a restaurant and hotel for each day, including how to get to each location, hours, ratings, and customer reviews. The instructions note that the planner should choose one city and fill in the details for two attractions, one restaurant, and one hotel for each of the two days of travel, taking into account travel times and distances covered.
Teaching for multiple intelligences
This document summarizes the integration of learning styles theory and multiple intelligences theory proposed by Silver, Strong, and Perini. It begins by briefly outlining both theories independently, noting their complementary strengths and limitations. Specifically, learning styles theory focuses on individual differences in learning processes, while multiple intelligences theory centers on content and products of learning. The authors then describe a three-step process to integrate the theories: 1) describing learning styles abilities for each intelligence, 2) linking styles and intelligences to sample vocations, and 3) categorizing assessment products by intelligence and style. The result is a model linking the individualized process approach of styles with the content-focused intelligences theory.
Group 3
This document outlines an EFL lesson plan that uses educational technology. It includes watching a documentary about the impact of educational technology in EFL teaching. Students will then discuss ways technology is used based on the video and debate the advantages and disadvantages of different supplementary materials, including discussing textbooks in the classroom. For assessment, students will create a survey about technology, conduct it outside the classroom, and present results in a PowerPoint about which technologies others want to see used in EFL classrooms and why.

By Dr. Vinod Kumar KanvariaA Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
